Based on the reports of Indian Express, the music legend expressed, “When Aishwarya first told me the story of the film… I thought ‘This film is going to be boring da’. I thought it would be preachy. Until I saw the film… The scenes that I thought would be cringy and preachy were handled very thoughtfully and were heartwarming. I then asked her who wrote dialogue for the movie, and she said, ‘I wrote and Appa (referring to Rajinikanth) changed a bit.’ I realised it was his wisdom. Because he respects everything, he has researched well and has said many rare things.
